    That guilty creatures sitting at a play

    Been struck so to the soul, that presently
    They have proclaimed their malefactions.”

    “O curse of marriage,
    That we can call these delicate creatures ours
    And not their appetites! I had rather be a toad,

    Than keep a corner in the thing I love
    For others’ uses.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
